Martin Luther King -

If you can spare 77 seconds watch this clip.

This March sees the 42nd anniversary of the Assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King. Whatever your politics, you have to say that he was a wonderful orator, perhaps arguably the greatest deliverer of a speech in post war times. He had the ability to whip the crowd up into a complete frenzy.

This is a great video clip of Dr. King, when he knew his days were numbered, you can see by the look in his eye and the passion in his voice that this was his last public address, sad but life is not always fair.

Martin Luther King, Jr., was born on January 15, 1929, in Atlanta, Georgia. He was the son of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Sr. and Alberta Williams King. King's father was born Michael King, and Martin Luther King, Jr., was originally named Michael King, Jr., until the family traveled to Europe in 1934 and visited Germany. His father soon changed both of their names to Martin Luther in honor of the German Protestant leader Martin Luther.

King became pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama when he was twenty-five years old.
